It was just that Corinne did not like her son using the word 'handsome' on Jeremy.Bryan was so happy to see her that he did not dare to let go of her hand. "Mommy, why are you here? Handsome Daddy just said he'd reunite me with you, and I believed him. But I didn't expect that I'll get to see you so soon!"Corinne tapped Bryan's head lightly. "Mommy can find you no matter where you go. It has nothing to do with your 'handsome Daddy'."Stunned, Bryan blinked at her. "Mommy, are you saying you've met handsome Daddy?"Corinne's chest tightened at the thought of Jeremy. Instead of answering Bryan, she asked, "Who told you you can call him Daddy?"Bryan pouted in embarrassment. "I called him Mister, but he told me to call him Daddy. Otherwise, Sophia would find out I'm not really her son."Corinne frowned and slowly knelt down to take a closer look at her son.She had been worried about Bryan ever since she found out where he was. She worried that he would not be able to eat or slee

Bryan held Corinne's hand tightly. "No! Mommy, of course I want you!"Corinne had not seen Bryan for many days. Thus, no matter how angry she was with him for running off, she still cared about him deeply.She gently held her son's face and asked softly, "Have you had lunch?"Bryan nodded. "Yeah!"Corinne was silent for two seconds before asking again, "What about…him?"Bryan tilted his head. "Mommy, are you asking if Daddy has had his lunch yet?""Yeah," said Corinne gruffly."He did. Both of us had lunch with Sophia before she went out.""I see." Corinne then looked around the suite."Come with me, Mommy! Let's go see how Daddy is doing with his exercise!" As he spoke, Bryan took Corinne's hand and pulled her toward the bedroom.Corinne helplessly followed him to the bedroom, which she had just walked out moments ago.After Bryan opened the door, Corinne saw Jeremy—who was sweating profusely from exertion—taking one difficult step after another on the balcony.His legs ha

Corinne saw through Jeremy's intention, so she kicked the wheelchair over with just enough force for it to stop right in front of him.Jeremy looked at the wheelchair, then at Corinne, and thanked her softly. He then slowly sat down on the wheelchair and steered it toward her to grab the bottled water on the small round table. He started gulping down the water after unscrewing the cap.Corinne was replying to a message on her phone when from the corner of her eye, she caught Jeremy drinking. She glanced at him for a second before turning her attention back to the message she was replying to."Corinne, you seem to really like me," said Jeremy out of the blue.Corinne stopped typing. Without even looking at him, she replied, "Yes, I really like you. Is there any problem?"Jeremy was shocked by her straightforward answer. "I thought you'd hate me even more now."Corinne scoffed and said, "I hate you, too. Those two feelings are not mutually exclusive."Jeremy stared at her quietly

Corinne rolled her eyes at Jeremy. "I just find it funny. You did the same thing to me before, so it's my turn to tease you!"Jeremy still could not remember how he treated her before, so he could not really refute her claims.At that moment, Corinne's phone rang, to which she immediately answered.It was quiet on the balcony, so without the speakerphone on, Jeremy could hear the voice coming from the other end of her phone. It was a man."Hey Corinne, where are you?"Corinne glanced at Jeremy thoughtfully before replying, "I'm at a friend's place. What's up?""Didn't you say you wanted to check out my piece of land at Serenity Bay last time? Come on, I'll take you there now," said Jason with a smile.Corinne glanced at her watch. "Okay, where should we meet?""Where are you? I'll pick you up!""No, I'll go pick you up instead.""Okay then, I'll send you the location.""Okay."After hanging up, Corinne put her phone back into her pocket, looking like she was ready to leave.

Corinne said nothing and concentrated on driving toward Serenity Bay.Jason had always been a talkative person. He could talk endlessly when he had something to say, and when he had nothing to say, he would find something to talk about."Corinne, which friend's place were you over at just now?" he asked.Corinne naturally did not want to let him know about Jeremy."It's not like you'd know if I told you the name," answered Corinne."I ask because I care about you, Corinne.""Thanks for your concern, but it's best if we stick to talking about business today.""You must be the one person who hates me the most in the world, Corinne," said Jason helplessly."I don't hate you. I'm just not interested in you."Jason put his hand to his forehead dramatically. "Then you might as well hate me! Corinne, do you have to be this blunt? I'm really hurt."Corinne thought he was talking too much. Her gaze hardened as she huffed, "Sit tight!"Before Jason could grasp what was going to happen

"Zachary, I'm back!" Sophia shouted as soon as she walked in through the door.Both Jeremy and Bryan were watching the television in the living room. No one looked over at Sophia when they heard her coming back."Okay," said Jeremy lightly.Sophia was used to his indifference. She walked to the sofa with the groceries she bought from the supermarket."Zachary, look! I passed by the supermarket on my way back and bought a lot of fresh ingredients. I'm going to make you some beef stew I just learned today!" said Sophia while shaking the plastic bag in her hand.Jeremy raised his eyes and looked at her passively. "You've been busy all day, so you don't have to cook today."Sophia shook her head and insisted, "I'm not tired! Zachary, I found that I actually like cooking. I get a sense of achievement every time I see you and Benjamin eating the food I cooked."Jeremy said nothing. He was not going to offer up any more opinions if she insisted on cooking. He would just let her do it.

Bryan frowned. "Because I don't think you're my Mommy!"Sophia was stunned by this remark before panic overtook her. "You… You're talking nonsense again! If I'm not your Mommy, then who is? At the very least, you didn't suddenly appear out of nowhere!"Bryan glared at her and said unhappily, "What proof do you have that you're my mommy? I don't look anything like you at all!"Sophia instinctively glanced at Jeremy to see his reaction before saying hurriedly, "Who said that kids will look like their mother? Many kids don't look like their mommy when they were little, but then they became more and more alike as they grew up!"Bryan put his hands on his hips. "Anyway, I just don't believe you're my Mommy! And if you're so sure about it, why don't we take a maternity test to see if we're related by blood?!""Why you!"'Is this d*mn kid trying to create an opportunity to go back to Corinne? He probably has enough fun here already, and that's why he wants to go back. Oh, he can just dr

As reluctant as Bryan was, he did not dare to defy Jeremy. Thus, he unwillingly apologized to Sophia. "I'm sorry…"Sophia was so happy for Jeremy taking her side that she decided to let Bryan's attitude slide. She started to pretend to be a good person again."It's okay, Benjamin. I'm not really angry with you. But make sure you don't speak like that to me again, you hear?"The only reason Bryan apologized to her was because Jeremy forced him to. He did not sincerely mean it, so he turned his face away from Sophia.Jeremy looked at Bryan with darkened eyes. "You're right. He is getting ruder. He really needs to be disciplined.""Forget it. I think Benjamin knows he was wrong. Don't be too harsh on him, Zachary," said Sophia, feigning kindness."It's exactly because I was too lenient on him that he became so disrespectful! You should carry on what you were going to do, and I'll give him an earful."Sophia nodded and secretly smiled. "Okay, I'll leave you to lecture him while I go

Sherman could not help but feel fearful when he recalled the incident.Rita gently smoothed his furrowed brow. "I knew you'd come to rescue me, just like all the times you did. I love you, Sherman."Previously, Rita confessed her love to him when she was groggy. At this moment, however, she was clearly awake, even sporting a faint smile on her face as she confessed.Sherman immediately blushed. "I love you, too."Rita did not stay long in the hospital; she quickly returned to the Parr family's mansion. Just as Sherman's grandparents had said, Rita did not have any major injuries, so there was no need for her to stay in the hospital that long. In fact, she might even recover faster emotionally under the care at home.Not once did Sherman bring up Rita's job, but she surprisingly resigned from New Capital Times on her own accord. It would be difficult for her to investigate cases with her current condition; not to mention Sherman had handed over the evidence to the police. The polic

"Sherman, I like you. I love you," Rita finally confessed.Sherman, deeply pained, pulled Rita into his arms. "This is all my fault. I should've looked for you quicker. I've never blamed you. All I want is to see you smile. It's enough for me as long as you're willing to let me stay by your side."You don't have to confess to me. I know it's hard for you to do that because of your family. I've seen the way they've treated you, and…"The bodyguards who had barged in with Sherman felt a bit awkward to see their company president in tears. However, the priority was to get Rita to the hospital for a check-up. Being tied up for hours could cause circulation issues, and it could be dangerous if her limbs did not regain feelings soon.In the end, they got the bravest among them to convince Sherman to let them take Rita to the hospital. Instead of letting them do it, Sherman wiped away his tears and, with ease, lifted Rita as if she was as light as a feather.Fortunately, after the hospit

With that, Karen left without looking back. She was carrying Vince's baby in her womb, so how could she pin all her hopes on Sadie? Since Sadie was obviously unruly, she would have to rely on her son.'Sadie can spend the rest of her life with Esmond since she likes him so much. God knows it had been exhausting enough to raise her. Plus, it's only fair for Esmond to take care of her since I've done my part taking care of her until now,' thought Karen.Meanwhile, the only consolation for Sherman was that Esmond did not try to put up a fight. It seemed that he still cared about his daughter Sadie.Sherman led his men to a dilapidated house. Esmond had been cautious enough to choose a rundown house situated at the end of a village.When Sherman barged in, he found Rita lying on the floor while Esmond's men ignored her. Esmond's men had followed his orders, and since he did not instruct them to do anything to Rita, they left her well alone.Before the men could react, they were surrou

Karen cried and silently knelt by Sadie's side without trying to defend herself. Sadie, on the other hand, feebly tried to explain herself. Alas. Vince refused to listen.There had been many occasions before when he had chosen to believe Karen and Sadie, but at this moment, he realized he had been terribly wrong to do that.Rita used to be so kind, understanding, and well-behaved. However, ever since Karen and Sadie moved in, Vince felt like his daughter had become manipulative, always trying to compete for attention, and stirring up jealousy in front of him.Unfortunately, it took Rita's disappearance to make Vince realize that Rita was not trying to compete for attention. All Rita wanted from him was to treat her the same as Sadie.Vince used to think that Rita should give in to Sadie more since Sadie was younger, too."Why don't you go live with your biological father since you prefer him so much? I never want to see you show your face around here anymore! As for your mother, s

Sadie was so anxious that she wanted to jump out. "Mom, don't tell me you fell for it! Why did you call Esmond? Now they all know where Rita is. You've ruined everything, again! What were you thinking?"Karen could not care less. She cried and slapped Sadie. "You nearly scared me to death! What would I do if something happened to you? I didn't raise you just to watch you die. I told you not to meet up with Esmond, so why did you secretly meet up with him? How can you ask him to get rid of Rita?"Are you out of your mind? All I want is for us to live out the rest of our lives peacefully, so why didn't you listen to me?!"Sadie was furious. Karen had stopped trying to get rid of Rita ever since she got pregnant, so how could Sadie not be angry? Rita was like a thorn in her side, and Sadie would never be happy unless Rita was dead."Don't you know I like Sherman? How could you ask me to do nothing when Rita has stolen him from me?! I was the one who liked him first. It's either Rita g

Karen wanted so badly to slap Esmond through the phone.'What good are his pompous words now? We wouldn't be in this mess now if he hadn't hit me back then! What's more, he's saying he's doing this for Sadie. But has he ever thought of what would happen to me and Sadie if he got rid of Rita? Rita's the heiress of the Russell family. Not to mention, she's married to Sherman, so that makes her owner of Parr Group too! What makes Esmond think he can get rid of Rita so easily?'Karen's breath was ragged as she said, "If you don't believe me, just listen to your daughter's screams. I can't save her now; you will literally decide her fate! Plus, I'm pregnant with Vince's baby, so even if I lose Sadie, I still have a kid—which is more than what I can say about you!"Sherman could not help but be impressed by Karen a little. Even in this dire situation, she did not forget to express her heartfelt feelings to Vince, letting him know that she was always on his side. It was certainly not an ea

"Sherman raised an eyebrow. "Don't worry, I'm sure it's just a minor injury, maybe just a finger. There shouldn't be any major issues. A sprained joint takes only a hundred days to heal, and it might take her even less time to heal if you take very good care of her while she's recuperating."Karen's heart ached upon hearing that. She lunged toward Sherman, wanting to hit him, but the bodyguards stopped her before she could get close.Vince, still worried, held Karen tightly beside him. "Calm down. I'm sure Sadie will come out unharmed if Rita's kidnapping has nothing to do with her. But if it does, then you should know very well that…"Vince's voice dropped an octave. He could not believe his daughter's disappearance had anything to do with his stepdaughter. However, he was not utterly naive.He continued, "How could a girl like her take Rita away? Even the car window was smashed. Others must've been involved. Does her biological father have anything to do with it?"Sherman nodded

"Yes, it's true I met up with my biological father, but it was just a one-time thing. I don't want to go back to him at all! Otherwise, I would've done it ages ago. Dad, I'm really grateful to you for taking me in and looking after me all these years. That's why I feel like you're my real father, even more real than those who share the same blood."How could you unjustly accuse me and Mom like that? Sherman is the one spouting nonsense here. He's trying to push all the blame onto us. Dad, you have to wake up and see the truth!"Karen nodded along, but her heart was racing. 'When did Sadie meet Esmond? How did Sherman know when I don't even know? Seems like Sadie does have something to do with Rita's kidnapping. I have to settle things and get Sherman out of here.'Karen never had the thought of rekindling her relationship with Esmond. The only thing she wanted then was to peacefully give birth to her son. Everything in the Russell family would eventually go to her son, and she would

Sherman detested people pointing their fingers at him when they spoke. He stood up slowly, towering over Vince instantly."You claim to be Rita's father, yet if I were you, I'd choose to shut up and stand aside. I can't believe you're scolding me for threatening Sadie when she's not even your real daughter!"Look at her guilty expression; it's clear she's involved. If you don't believe me, use your brain a little. No wonder Russell Group is declining under your leadership. It's only a matter of time before the company goes completely bankrupt!"Sherman showed no mercy, causing Vince to retreat with every word. Vince clutched his chest, struggling for breath.Karen, despite her weakness, stepped forward to support him. "How could you speak to your father-in-law like this? What has Sadie done to offend you? She has nothing but admiration for you. Plus, she's just a child. How could you treat her like this?"She went on and on, but Sherman stood his ground. Meanwhile, the burly bodyg
